When I used to commute to work I would take advantage of the hour in my car by catching up on new Americana music by simply tuning into the great WSGE. Now that I'm lucky enough to work from home I must say that I've fallen behind. Today I went out to the Americana Music Association website to check out the charts. How could I have gotten so slack that I didn't know Hayes Carll and Gregg Allman had new albums out? I'm embarrassed I tell you. I think I'll spend some time each morning using my indoor radio from now on. When I pick music online I tend to start ignoring genres I love because I get too focused on something else -- for weeks at a time. Well, if you have the same problem, here are 10 tracks from the current most played Americana albums according to the AMA chart. I miss you guys, please forgive me for not giving you the attention you deserve.
